With the most extensive, adaptable, and secure network available, Evolve's Managed Network Solutions for food-to-go and quick serve restaurants help businesses retain consumers in-store, boost customer loyalty, optimise uptime, and increase profitability.
The food-to-go and quick serve industry has expanded rapidly in recent years and is expected to develop more in the future. However, there has been an increased necessity for industry organisations to adapt to changing environments and adopt digital technologies in order to assure sustainability. Customers want fast, efficient, and safe service, thus digital technology has become an essential aspect of the industry.
To improve the consumer experience and expedite operations, quick serve businesses must adopt digital technology. Self-service kiosks, digital menus, contactless payment systems, and online ordering platforms are examples of in-store digital solutions that businesses can employ. These technologies can improve service by shortening wait times, increasing order accuracy, and improving the customer experience.
In addition, businesses can leverage technology to better understand customer preferences and behaviour, which can help inform product development and marketing efforts. Embracing digital technology is crucial for businesses in the quick industry to remain competitive, attract customers, and achieve long-term success.
Reduced Food Waste
It's startling to think that 1.3 billion tonnes of food are wasted annually. However, the Internet of Things is poised to significantly lower this figure by continuously monitoring the quality and temperature of food and notifying managers and supervisors when something goes wrong.
Furthermore, "smart farming," which is based on the Internet of Things, aids farmers in becoming more productive, which lowers food waste. This can be accomplished using a variety of instruments, such as agricultural drones, smart greenhouses, animal tracking systems, and smart agriculture sensors.
Customer Engagement
A more interactive and personalised consumer experience is being made possible by technology through the combination of data-driven insights and state-of-the-art app development. The food sector may customise nutrition regimens and goods by using AI, and food tech apps make ordering and tracking easier, resulting in a smooth and enjoyable customer experience.
Mobile Ordering
You can now order food in several quick service restaurants verbally-free thanks to kiosks that have been installed. Not having to stand in queue. Lots of time to review the offers.
Kiosks are beneficial to the company as well because they increase productivity, efficiency and increase customer retention.
Internet of Things
The term "Internet of Things" (IoT) describes the growing number of electrical gadgets that are constantly connected to the internet. The sector is estimated to be worth an astounding £100 billion, and it makes sense given that each of us uses 601 internet-connected gadgets on a daily basis.
However, what is the effect of IoT on the food industry? Surprisingly, the Internet of Things (IoT) has a significant impact on the business, influencing everything from food safety and manufacturing processes to product distribution and marketing.
